Supercars are a rare breed. Rarer still are custom-bodied supercars based off of already existing supercars. Take this racy coupe spotted on 49th street for example. While difficult to recognize based on the styling alone, unless your an automotive super freak, the drivetrain, chassis and other major structural components are shared with one of Detroit’s greats. So go ahead, name that obscure supercar…

You are looking at the AR-1 a limited production vhicle. If you want more info let me know as I am the designer and build of the AR-1, which happens to be a 33 year old design that I showed at the New York Auto Expo May 1979..

The Supercar is the AR-1 limited production of only 50 are to be built. The AR-1 is a 33 year old design the first 4 were built in 1979-1982. 3 were sold back then and the 4th went to the back of the garage for 25 years, when family left me funds and said go follow your dream. So 5.5 years later that is what you are looking at. In a few weeks you will see it on the TV show Royal Pains on USA network #9
